Upload img with form

dare87 · January 22, 2008

I am making an audition form but I don't know how to make it so they can upload a photo with the form. I have the HTML portion of what I think it would be, but I am still new at this. any help will be great.

Here is the code.

Also if there is an easy way to make the radio button sticky that would be great too..

Thanks again

Hi there!

I can recommend this PDF about uploading pictures. It's very simple, but still explains alot of the securityholes in the form and picture itself. I used this one for a project of mine;

Good luck!

My only problem is I don't know how to implement this into my current code. I have done the rest of examples that I have found, but I have yet been able to implement the file upload. I have tried, but failed every time. Thanks for the links, and I will keep trying, but any more help would be great.

NikkiLoveGod · January 22, 2008

Well, first you add a new inputfield into your form, with type="file" and then you put up a code into your php section where you check if the image has been uploaded, and if it has and it meets the requirements, you move it to some folder on your server, and for example, put its link into a database of yours. Check the pdf, there is a simple guide. Remember to put the ENCTYPE="multipart/formdata" into the form, that should help too

dare87 · January 22, 2008

I have add this

<?php

if (isset($_FILES['upload']) && ($_FILES['upload']['error'] != 4))
                            {
                                $upload = $_FILES['upload'];
                                $upload_option = TRUE;
                            }
                            else
                            {
                                $upload_option = FALSE;
                            }?>

But I am still having trouble with how/where to add the temp file and such to a db.

I wrote this but I don't know how to still have the rest of my data inputed into my other db

<?php

// If the user decided to upload a file the following script will run.
                                if ($upload_option == TRUE)
                                {
                                    // Connect to the database.
                                    require_once ('../../pimysql_connect.php');
                                
                                    // Create a variable that will contain the description information for this upload.
                                    // For uploads from the contact page the description will consist of the users name.
                                    $description = 'Uploaded by ' . $name . ', ' . $email;
                                
                                    // Make the query.
                                    $query = "INSERT INTO uploads (file_name, file_size, file_type, description, user)
                                              VALUES ('{$_FILES['upload']['name']}' , '{$_FILES['upload']['size']}' , '{$_FILES['upload']['type']}' , '$description' , 'contact')";
                                          
                                    // Run the query.
                                    $result = mysql_query ($query);
                                
                                    // Rename the file user the user_id before it is moved into the uploads directory.
                                    if ($result)
                                    {
                                        $upload_id = mysql_insert_id();
                                    }
                                
                                    // Move the file to its new location on the server.
                                    if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['upload']['tmp_name'], "uploads/$upload_id"))
                                    {
                                        $upload_success = TRUE;
                                    }
                                    else
                                    {
                                        $upload_success = FALSE;
                                    
                                        $query = "DELETE FROM uploads WHERE upload_id = $upload_id"; // If the file could not be moved the database entry will be deleted.
                                    
                                        $result = mysql_query ($query);
                                    }
                                }?>

Can someone help me put these two things within my first comment... if not any help will be great.

Thanks

umm? Im not sure what you are trying to do there exactly, but you really shouldnt put stuff into your databasequery without escaping it first with, for example mysql_real_escape_string(). http://fi2.php.net/mysql_real_escape_string

And to get that imageuploading to work, you need to put up the ' enctype="multipart/formdata" ' into your <form> tag. then you need to insert a <input type="file" name="image" /> into your form, where you have the textareas.

Then you put up to your PHP section and if-statement where it checks if the file is uploaded or not.

<?PHP
if(!empty($_FILE['image']['name'])) {
  //NOT EMTPY
}
?>

and in the not empty part you will put up the checks if the file that is uploaded meets the requirements.

and then if it meets the requirements, you move it from the temp file to a some folder in your server.

<?PHP

//this is the folder where the file is uploaded
$uploaddir = 'uploads/';

//This is the actual path to the file.
$uploadfile = $uploaddir . basename($_FILES['userfile']['name']);

//Check if moving of the file is successfull to the appointed folder
if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'], $uploadfile)) {

  //And this states that the action was successfull, here you can insert the LINK to the image into the database.
  echo "File is valid, and was successfully uploaded.\n";

/*  This is an example how you can add it to your database.
*  
*  $url = "http://SITEURLHERE.COM/";
*  $query = "UPDATE table SET imageurl = '" . $url . $uploadfile . "' WHERE id = '" . $SOMEID . "' ";
*  $result = mysql_query($query) or die("ERROR!");
*  
*  NOTE: add the escapes and modify to your needs. This should work, though im not a master my self. I havent done this that   
*  many times either
*/

} else {
echo "File uploading failed.\n";
}

?>
